flicked out, running along her bottom lip making it glisten invitingly.
    “Sexy. Very. You please me greatly. Now come to me. Slide into my lap.”
    She swallowed nervously but moved around, slipping onto his lap, placing her arms around his neck.
    “Now…aren’t you a vision?” He grinned. “So tell me… What do you think of your new Satyr?”
    She smiled at him. “I believe I already have my prince, you far exceed my expectations. More than I ever could have dreamed of.”
    Harley grinned as his cock jumped at the familiar timbre. The voice he adored was right at home in his concubine’s stunning body. “Wicked little concubine,” he said and shook his head.
    “I had to peek.” She blushed. “I’m sorry. I just couldn’t stand not knowing.”
    “You had me at a loss. I wished to see you as well.”
    “You did?”
    He nodded. “Though I’m glad I didn’t. Had our world seen you beforehand, I would be fighting for you. And while that wouldn’t normally bother me, it would cut into this evening with you. That just wouldn’t do. You, my dear, are most definitely mine.”
    “I can live with that.” She cuddled to him. “You mentioned rules?”
    “Yes…but first I think a kiss is in order. Kiss me.”
    “My pleasure,” she breathed, leaning into him. Slowly she wet her red lips with her tongue before pressing her mouth to his, kissing him.
    Harley was quickly lost in the woman, who would be his Beloved, with just one kiss. He nipped at her bottom lip and pulled away. “Ummm, very nice.” He ran his fingers down her torso to tease her splayed inner thighs. “Tell me, Bells.” He grinned. “Are you a virgin?”
    “Yes,” she gasped breathlessly. The kiss had had the same effect on her.
    “Really? Well, that is a surprise. It wasn’t a stipulation of our joining,” he said and slipped his fingers further up.
    “It wasn’t?” She frowned then shrugged. “All the women in my clan are virgins when they’re…given away. That’s why we’re so prized. Does it bother you?”
    He shook his head. “Not at all. What is your experience?”
    “I’ve aced all my training in many ranges of pleasure from the basic to the more advanced along with fetishes and kinks. I studied with theory work and tutorials. I’ve had experiences with other women, and I once kissed another man, but that’s all. My actual experience is severely lacking, I’m afraid, but I’m an exceptionally quick study.”
    “Of that I have no doubt.” He leaned in and nuzzled her throat. “Now I’m going to ask you something, and you are free to answer how you choose.”
    “Okay,” she purred throatily, letting his lips move over her throat.
    “What do you want from this relationship?” he said and bit sweetly on her collarbone.
    “This?” She gasped at the feel of his teeth. “As much as you can give me. Honestly I don’t want to live like my mother, but I understand our ways. I want you and I’m willing to take you any way I can.”
    “Good answer.” He laughed. “And you will be my only concubine.”
    “Really?” Her face lit up.
    He nodded. “Indeed. I don’t want to have a harem. Never thought it was a good idea. One woman as a concubine is fine for me, though I will always take my pleasure where I will.”
    “Yes, I can understand that, although I’d ask that you be careful if I may. I’d like to be the only one to birth your children; I know it’s rare, however. My older brothers are from different concubines, and it’s never been easy for us.”
    “A smart woman. I would never conceive a child with anyone other than my Beloved.” He smiled. “That’s for you.”
    “Thank you, you honour me greatly.”
    “You’re mine. I plan to always. Now, the rules.” He drew circles on her inner thigh.
    “The rules.” She shivered in anticipation.
    “First, you will always do as I bid.”
    “Without question,” she agreed, immediately adding, “but don’t bid me off the edge of a
